What is a Compass?
A compass is a fun tool that can help you find your way in the wilderness. A compass is important because it always points toward the North Pole of the earth. This is important for finding your way and knowing what direction to take when you are lost.
Compasses help people on boats and ships on the sea. They also help people on land to know which direction they should go. Sometimes when people are in the forest or if there are clouds covering the sun, it can be difficult to know which direction to take, and people can get lost. Since a compass always points North, it can be used to help people to know where to go. By knowing which way north is, one can also find south, east, and west. A compass and a map are great tools for finding your way in the wilderness.
It is a good idea to bring a compass with you whenever you go camping or hiking.
